People with disabilities face a "premium" of £550 a month owing to extra transport, insurance and living costs, a charity has claimed.
Scope said that the benefits available to disabled people did not cover the extra cost, at only £360 a month.
The findings will now be studied by a commission aiming to find out how disabled consumers can get better deals.
It will spend a year interviewing disabled people and organisations.
